Rebirth of the Director in Korea

“Hyuk-jae -ssi, sit down!” Kim Jae-yeol, who was walking in front, opened the door of the private room and reached out to invite Jung Hyuk-jae to sit down with a smile on his face Can’t stop it.

“Chief Kim, you are so kind! Please!”

Standing in front of the private room, the two humbly came in for a while and sat down in their respective seats. Kim Jae-yeol looked at Jung Hyuk-jae who hadn’t seen him in just over two months, and couldn’t help feeling that the changes were so great!

Of course, this change does not mean a change in Jung Hyuk-jae’s appearance or other aspects, but a change in Jung Hyuk-jae’s temperament or identity.

If you said that MBCTV Station and Jung Hyuk-jae talked about cooperation before, if there is a feeling of up-to-down, then sitting here today, there is an equal conversation between the two people, and there is no difference in identity. .

As the number of viewers of the previous “Welcome to Dongmakgol” has burst, the name of JHJFilm has also entered the attention of the big guys in the circle. For this newly emerging new film production company, everyone besides Curious or curious.

Everyone is curious not only about JHJFilm and JHJ.Entertainment, but also Jung Hyuk-jae. From writer to director to producer, Jung Hyuk-jae’s time span in the past two years is a bit large, and the two years have almost reached the results that others may not be able to achieve in more than ten years.

If you say that “Welcome to Dongmakgol” has set an example for the film industry, then Jung Hyuk-jae is the role model for the younger generation of the entire director circle. At this age of Jung Hyuk-jae, who is there? Can he really achieve such an achievement?

So when facing Jung Hyuk-jae, Kim Jae-yeol behaved very kindly, at least on the surface, although the youngster in front of him is just twenty-six years old, but when sitting with him When we were together, Kim Jae-yeol felt that age was not the most important thing anymore. What Kim Jae-yeol obviously felt was the maturity of the youngster in front of him, not the maturity of his age group.

“Hyuk-jae -ssi, you can order.” Maybe it’s because I heard that Jung Hyuk-jae prefers Chinese food. Today, Kim Jae-yeol took Jung Hyuk-jae to a family in China. The restaurant, from the outside, the red lanterns are particularly eye-catching from a distance.

“Then I’m welcome.” Jung Hyuk-jae took the menu and looked at it. Because I have been there several times before, Jung Hyuk-jae quickly picked out the more delicious dishes. The dishes came, and then he handed over the menu, “Chief Kim, you can order it too!”

“Let me see.”

The two have ordered the dishes, sit down While we were waiting for the waiter to bring the dishes, while chatting in a low voice, Kim Jae-yeol took the lead in opening the mouth and said, “Hyuk-jae -ssi, what have you been up to lately?” Then Kim Jae-yeol opened the mouth and said, “Hyuk-jae -ssi, what are you up to?” Jae-yeol picked up the kettle on the table and poured a glass of water for himself and relatives of Jung Hyuk-jae, and then opened the mouth and said.

“Recently?” Jung Hyuk-jae thought for a while, and then said, “I haven’t been busy lately. Isn’t “The King and The Clown” about to be released? I have been working with the distribution agency CJ recently. Entertainment and Lotte Pictures are busy discussing the publicity work before the movie is released, and the movie is about to be released soon, so the recent work is a bit busy!”

“CJ Entertainment? Lotte Pictures?” I heard Jung Hyuk -jae I was a little surprised at what I said. He knew the name of CJ Entertainment. This is known as the “Aircraft Carrier of South Korea Entertainment Circle”. Even SM Entertainment would have to bow down. It’s the forces of CJ Entertainment too terrifying.

As for Jung Hyuk-jae’s second name-Lotte Film & Television, although Kim Jae-yeol has not heard of Lotte Film’s name before, he is the title of “Lotte” I’ve heard of it, and it’s very clear.

If CJ Entertainment is an aircraft carrier in South Korea’s entertainment industry, then Lotte Films is definitely a new dark horse in the entertainment industry. Don’t look at it now that it has nothing to come up with, but Lotte Films It can definitely be classified as rich and imposing.

“Well, the plan for the promotion period must be finalized this morning, otherwise when the time comes is approaching and the promotion plan has not been rolled out yet, when the time comes is a joke!”

After listening to Jung Hyuk-jae’s narrative, Kim Jae-yeol is clearly nodded and has a deep understanding of what Jung Hyuk-jae said. In fact, it’s not just Jung Hyuk-jae, it’s a TV series. It’s about to be aired. The promotion plan is the top priority in the early stage of the TV series.

Jung Hyuk-jae picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, and saw that there was not much water in Kim Jae-yeol’s cup on the desktop. He stood up and helped Kim Jae-yeol pour a glass, and said, “Chief Kim, why are you coming here this time?”

Although the dishes have not yet come, Jung Hyuk-jae It was the replied of straight to the point. Obviously, I was very curious about the reason why Kim Jae-yeol called himself out this time.

When I heard Jung Hyuk-jae ask this, Kim Jae-yeol didn’t hide it. In fact, I have to say it anyway. It would be better to blunt to explain it now.

“In fact, it is like this.” Kim Jae-yeol glanced at Jung Hyuk-jae, who was listening attentively to his speech, and coughed slightly before speaking of which, “Hyuk- Jae -ssi, I came to you this time mainly for copyright matters?”

“What copyright?” Jung Hyuk-jae felt that he didn’t quite understand the meaning of Kim Jae-yeol’s words.

Jung Hyuk-jae owns the copyright in the two books he has published so far, but these two books without exception have already sold the TV series adaptation and shooting rights, a book “Love “Story In Harvard” was adapted into “Love Story in Harvard”, and another “My Lovely Sam-soon” was also adapted into a TV series of the same name, but the copyright of these two books has already been sold, or Other TV Stations have cooperated, and there is really no novel in his hands that has not yet sold the copyright.

When I heard Jung Hyuk-jae say this, I saw Kim Jae-yeol in front of him and quickly waved his head and replied: “It’s not the copyright of your novel, but the right to adapt a comic to the TV series.”

p>

“Comics?” Don’t you draw cartoons yourself? Jung Hyuk-jae felt a little weird, and there was more confusion. What the hell is that in Kim Jae-yeol’s “manga”?

Kim Jae-yeol did not hesitate, but directly explained, “That’s it, Hyuk-jae-ssi, don’t you have the right to adapt the TV series “Princess Hours” in your hands? I’m here this time. The main thing I want to talk about is this manga?”

“Princess Hours?” Upon hearing Kim Jae-yeol’s words, Jung Hyuk-jae felt that the other party had said the name of the manga wrong at first. But in a blink of an eye, Jung Hyuk-jae also reacted, what “Princess Hours”? No wonder I felt so familiar when I heard Kim Jae-yeol say this just now. Isn’t this the TV series “Princess Hours”?

I believe that the name most familiar to the audience is also another name of this TV series-“Princess Hours”!

In fact, it is not only “Princess Hours”, but also other well-known comic books or novels. As long as they have an impression, Jung Hyuk-jae has bought their TV series adaptation rights in advance, especially I have had the impression of previous life, but Jung Hyuk-jae tried every means to buy them. Don’t look up at them now, but in a few years, these will be a lot of wealth.

“Princess Hours” tells the modern story of the marriage between the prince and the common people under the background of an overhead monarchy. The TV series “Princess Hours” of previous life is produced by Ju Ji-hoon and Yoon Eun-hye. , Kim Jeong-hoon, Song Ji-hyo starring, the ratings and response of the TV series after the broadcast are good, especially the two men and women in the drama, Ju Ji-hoon and Yoon Eun-hye, are even more rewarding In particular, Yoon Eun-hye has been extremely successful in transforming from a singer into an actor. In the following years, he has opened up a general sense of presence and various awards.

“This is it!” Jung Hyuk-jae said with emotion. In fact, if he said that it was not Kim Jae-yeol that came to find himself today and talked about this matter, Jung Hyuk-jae himself could possibly Forgetting this incident, it’s not that his memory is not working anymore, but that there have been too many things since most recently, and Jung Hyuk-jae didn’t even think of it.

“How about? The price is easy to negotiate!” Kim Jae-yeol blunt said. After speaking, Jung Hyuk-jae, who was staring at his face, looked a little nervously at the expression on his face. I look forward to Jung Hyuk-jae’s next words.

“The copyright of the TV series adaptation is of course no problem. After all, we have had a lot of cooperation before.” Jung Hyuk-jae took a sip from the water glass on the table and said with a smile.

When I heard Jung Hyuk-jae’s words, Kim Jae-yeol was also nodded and expressed his agreement with what he said. From “Super Rookie” to “My Lovely Sam-soon”, let alone this What are the ratings of the two TV series? Just because Jung Hyuk-jae and MBCTV Station’s previous cooperation relationship is extremely close, when it comes to the ratings of these two TV series, MBCTV Station is even more reluctant to lose such a young and outstanding. Director PD.

“There is no problem with copyright, let’s talk about the cooperation below?” Jung Hyuk-jae blunt said, without any hesitation.

In fact, before coming, Kim Jae-yeol had already thought about this issue, and’cooperation’ generally followed another word’win-win’. The 30% ratings of “Super Rookie” and the 50% ratings of “My Lovely Sam-soon” can explain a problem, that is, Jung Hyuk-jae is handy for such TV series.

Before coming, Kim Jae-yeol made a good calculation, that is Jung Hyuk-jae’s personal importance to MBCTV Station. From the surface, after the cooperation of “Super Rookie”, MBCTV Station seems to suffer a lot, but it actually made a lot of money.

If there is not a good cooperation and mutual benefit of “Super Rookie”, Jung Hyuk-jae’s “My Lovely Sam-soon” will not choose to cooperate with MBCTV Station at all, but what about the final result? I believe many viewers already know that if Jung Hyuk-jae chose to cooperate with other TV Stations at the time of “My Lovely Sam-soon”, then the final result comes out, MBCTV Station has no place to cry at all, that’s half of it. National ratings!

“Cooperation? There is no problem with cooperation!” Without any hesitation, Kim Jae-yeol readily agreed.

Jung Hyuk-jae felt a little surprised when he heard Kim Jae-yeol’s promise so readily, but didn’t expect Kim Jae-yeol to be so courageous that he didn’t even need to discuss it. Determined his identity.

“Actually, I have the scripts, sub-shots, and scenes that have been adapted from the comics.” Jung Hyuk-jae explained.

When I heard Jung Hyuk-jae’s words, Kim Jae-yeol’s mouth couldn’t close. Is this a pie in the sky?

This time Water-Wood Drama takes longer than the shooting time of several other TV series, but even so, the time is still not enough, Kim Jae-yeol has already ordered his subordinates , Save as much time as you can save, freeing up enough time for the filming of TV series.

Actually, Kim Jae-yeol had already thought about it before he came, and the Screenwriter candidate in his mind almost has a background, but he didn’t expect to sign a cooperation agreement. Jung Hyuk-jae gave Such a big surprise. Not only did the comics have been written into scripts, but they also had scenes and scenes. How much time could this save the filming of the TV series?

Thinking of this, the smile on Kim Jae-yeol’s face has become brighter, and his mood has obviously become better.

……………………………………….. ..

This Chinese restaurant happened to be built on the side of a relatively prosperous street. In addition to meals, there are more various clothing stores and makeup shops nearby. Because of this, This street is also called “Little Dongdaemun” by many nearby residents, and this is what they are talking about.

Although it is not as bustling and lively as Dongdaemun, there are normally a lot of pedestrians who come here to go shopping. People coming, people going on the street are full of black heads at a glance. Today, it seems to be a bit more lively here, especially in front of the newly opened clothing store over there. The inner and outer three floors are surrounded by pedestrians watching the excitement, each with their heads and their heads stretched out, wishing themselves. It’s better to grow more than ten centimeters high.

After talking about the cooperation, I came out of the Chinese restaurant. Jung Hyuk-jae and Kim Jae-yeol talking and laughing came out. They were post-dinner digesters. Seeing the lively scene not far away, Jung Hyuk- Jae suggested to take a look there, and Kim Jae-yeol in a good mood easily agreed.

When Jung Hyuk-jae came to the front, Jung Hyuk-jae realized that this place was a little different from what he had imagined. Originally, he thought that there were people dancing or singing like Hongdae, and the talents gathered. Lots, it’s not like that when I got closer. It turned out to be the opening of a newly opened fashion clothing store. When I saw Jung Hyuk-jae, I felt a little dull.

“Let’s please with a warm applause…”

Jung Hyuk-jae originally planned to leave, but when he saw the girl who appeared next At the time, he took back the steps he had taken, and stood still and stared at the woman on the stage…
